This is what I do while I wait (more than 24 hours so far due to inability to decide what I want :P )
-RL! Sometimes I just remember... or it makes me remember. However, once in awhile I just miss those hours of using my brain for the mud instead of doing something pointless such as watching TV.
-Haunt the GDB. But actually, I do that when I play as well. There's just so many older interesting threads to catch up on.
-As the excitement over my next character increases (yes, I finally decided to do the right thing and I am getting excited about it) I am thinking about her quirks, how she would react to different situations, and all the lovely details.
-Trying to get a better grasp upon aspects of Zalanthas I have not looked at in detail before, due to a new background. In other words, doing my homework.
-Krath and uberjazz are just so fun to poke on AIM. :D
Sometimes I do RL stuff, sometimes I read the docs, sometimes I sleep.
But my favorite thing to do is scour the internet looking for odd, inexplicable things like this: http://www.squidge.org/%7Epraxisters/lotrhobbits.html
I find that those sorts of things take my mind off the seemingly endless wait.

I feel like EvilRoeSlade is my brother....
My mom says I should stay away from AC....
:wink:
I search for a game that is exactly like Armageddon, except in a snowy place.
The application waiting time is OK. I am still shocked of the death of my old char. I don't want to think about Armageddon that moment. That is the reason why I have always a backup char.
The saturday is awful! I have to wait and wait. I play anthor MUD too, a Star wars MUD. If it is down too, or no other player is around I check the reviews and new Muds on mudconnect and Mud Top Sites. Could happen that I am stuck a day or so on another MUD. And besides that I sort my papers and maps finally.
I play counter-strike.
CS is the chief competitor with Arma for my free time.
28 hours so far.
I have sinned, and re-installed Diablo 2.
I swear there are no feelings involved, I am thinking about Arm the whole time, and I'll feel terrible tomorrow morning.
I cant believe I am that desperate.
There is no way I am going back to Achaea, and I dont feel like wasting my time with any other MUDs.
*sigh*
Quote from: "Akaramu"28 hours so far.
28 hours?
That is a little bit long! Isn't 24 hours the maximum? Longest time I had to wait was around 12 hours.
Shortest time was 2 minutes, no joke!
I just entered my char, logged off and wanted to send an e-mail to a clan-immy about my next char, as I suddenly got my approval.
Creepy....
Yup. Because I want to exchange the current character on my account (who I never logged onto because I realized I really really want to play something else) for another one I emailed to the mud account.
It takes longer, I guess.
Achaea! HAHAH
THAT GAME SUCKED!!
MAN! it was worse than Dragonrealms! Which was pretty frikken bad! Achaea's ONLY upside was that it was free. It's even got a shitty hard to spell name.

Not really free. I you want really part of it you have to buy credits.
I play starcraft, or Warcraft III
They are good enough to kill free time.
And by the way Arwen/Eowyn!!
Yeahh... !
civilization 3 conquests... online or offline its just the best waste of time aside armageddon.
Of course, that's only the best computer related pass time. Better than that you've got... drugs... and... Sex. They pass the time very well. Of course drugs like marijuana mix well with Armageddon, so, not really mutually exclusive there. Sex wouldn't mix with armageddon, unless you're a f-me. Even then, it just isn't the same. Drugs and sex? I usually try to keep them seperate too, but one can often lead to the other. Drugs to help erase the memory of that nasty nasty hooker you found.
Work. Play other games. Maybe put in a special app.
Eventually, I'll get inspiration from a movie for the basic outline of a character. Generally, my characters don't pick up their ticks, constant expressions, and more specific attitudes until they're in the game for a few hours.
I've been trying "Capitalism II" which is hugely complicated...crappy graphics, though.
I also do the different Command and Conquer games...mostly Generals and Red Alert 2, Yuri's Revenge.
I'm also a MOO3 junkie...nothing like taking over the galaxy when not taking over the Known World.
Moo3? Moo3? MOO3?
BLECHABLARGLBELARPBEURP. I was so let down.
Sleep.
QuoteI'm also a MOO3 junkie...nothing like taking over the galaxy when not taking over the Known World.
Honestly, you should be ashamed of yourself.
*blink*
Uh...okay. I don't understand y'all's problem with MOO3. If you get the patch (which you have to download from the website) the computer players are much more realistically ran and is a good, challenging game.
Moo2 was so much better.
I harass people on internet forums.
Quote from: "Callisto"I harass people on internet forums.
Wow. So, you need to submit a new character every day?

Eat healthier food that doesn't have to be snackable from the computer desk. ;)
Sleep on a regular schedule.
Wonder if I need help when I say 'Krath' as an exclaimation IRL. :twisted:
Quote from: "Angela Christine"Wow. So, you need to submit a new character every day?
I'll amend my statement: I harass people more often.
Better?
I simply turn in my nice, swiveling chair and play the Playstation 2, usually something violent, like GTA: Vice City or Max Payne.
Normally.. I bug Kerdon (Is kerdon even alive?) to let me have a nenyuki special app.. but I havn't gotten a reply back.. :)
And my templar idea needs to be a little smoother so I don't loook like an ex raider-type that is just sent to kill everyone that opposes Tek.

Dude, there is no Kerdon, I don't think there ever was a Kerdon. That may be your problem right there.
According to the weekly update:
House Nenyuk:
Kurano@armageddon.org Good luck.

38 hours.
emote nibbles upon her fingernails nervously.
I'm attending a funeral this afternoon, if there is still no answer when I get home I'm gonna break down and sob. I'm very much looking forward to that new character.
Did you remember to exit the account screen before closing your MUD client? I'd log in to your account and then log back out, making sure to exit correctly and completely.
Just a thought.
Callisto, I entered the character via email to the mud account. I couldnt create her through the mud because I already have a finished PC on my account (who I dont feel ready to play at the moment and who I never logged onto). I want to freeze that character on my account and play the one I emailed. Thats the problem.
Alright. Seems like the imms dont enter characters for a player so I requested a deletion and it worked! Afterwards I could normally apply for the one I do want to play. :)
